Dear Families and Friends,
We learned of the sudden death of my best friend Attilio on this planet. The shock was great one. But he went as he would have wished quickly and without suffering. That should be some consolation to you.
We send our deepest sympathy to you and your family. We hope that time will soon heal your sorrow.
Affectionately,

Mario and family. So sorry about Tee. Our family will miss him very much. We always enjoyed his visits and had fun doing things with him like Chocolate World in Hershey. I had fun taking him to the Big 33 Games in the Hersheypark Stadium. He loved football and seeing the top players in PA playing in that game.
